dammit that seems like a steal when I paid $400 for aluminum trail doors, $200 in paint supplies, and $350 for uppers this summer.

I should have waited! I got my set like 5 months ago for $500 with uppers but I had to get them repainted last week since they were a little rough

The missing parts will probably be a problem for the buyer. My drivers door has a broken rod so the door will not open from the outside. I have been unable to find a replacement rod.

I didn't think of that! Surprised someone doesn't make that part still. I wonder if that would be something Davey's jeep would have lying around

They are usually pretty easy to make if you have the other side to copy, a Home Depot to get the steel bar from, and a vice to help bend it. They don't have to be perfect to work.

Daveys Jeep does not. I was actually at a Jeep junkyard in Daytona a while ago but completely forgot to ask about it. I think he probably does have one.

The end of the bar that goes into the backside of the outside handle is threaded. I'm sure there is a way around that. The door PO used a huge glob of glue but that did not hold up.

If you have access to a tap and die set, you can thread the end yourself.
